After UltraVNC - YoWindow gets stucked in loading screen

Post by madmax25 »

Well, I guess, the topic says it all.
It happens after a UltraVNC session where I was the helping guy.
I'm running the current versions of YoWindow and UltraVNC on XP Home SP3.

To fix this I have to kill the YoWindow process by means of the task manager and reboot my computer.
What can I do to do without rebooting?

I guess it would be almost impossible to support every tool which might interfere with YoWindow.

But: maybe you could explain something i don't understand: you are saying YoWindow get's stuck after the UltraVNC session, right? The UltraVNC session is over and YoWindow gets stuck.
Before the UltraVNC session YoWindow is working as normal? In case that's true maybe UltraVNC has something to do that YoWindow cannot reach its servers after the UltraVNC session is over. Maybe some task is still running blocking YoWindow?
Does "the internet" still work after the UltraVNC? Could you browse to some sites with your browser?

Yuo once had a problem with desktop-icons which has resolved aftr installing a new version of UltraVNC: http://he1.yowindow.com/forum/viewtopic ... 804#p17500

Maybe an outdated version of UltraVNC makes some problems. Is there a new version of it available?

In fact, browsing is possible and working fine before and after a UltraVNC session.

As of the UltraVNC version, I just noticed, there seems to be a brand new one.

I'll be back after updating it. Give me a few minutes, please...

Ok, I think I'm done, now.

I removed all xml files in %appdata%\yowindow.
Then I restarted YoWindow in programm mode, and re-configured YoWindow.
After restarting YoWindow once more, I noticed the loading screen was replaced by an info about the iphone version.
Then, looking into the before mentioned folder again, I found only two xml files, one less than before.
Obviously, the worldcache.xml, which I had before was causing everything.

Now, I wonder why this apparently old file was still present before my fixing of this issue and where is the connection between this file and the misbehaviour after using UltraVNC?

There's still the PowerCinema issue to be solved. More about this to come... well, maybe!
